    Default Anybody remember Clarnence the Lion ?

    Years ago I remember there used to be a TV series about a lion named Clarence.
    I can't remember whether he was an American lion or an Australian lion, but he was a friendly sort of lion, somewhat similar to Skippy the TV Kangaroo.
    Now I know you don't have kangaroo's or wallaby Jim's in Pennsylvania so I know Skippy was Australian. Here's another lion, this one is Russian, probably named Boris, fancy him as a next door neighbour ?

    That's right, Daktari. I remember I used to watch it at my mother in laws, long ago

    Daktari with the "T-13" microphone and Skippy with the Bush Radio School, were big influences on me, and why I'm here!

    This'll stretch your trivia memory:

    Erin Moran, who played Jenny Jones in Daktari, is the same actress who played the bratty Joanie Cunningham--Richie's little sister--in the 1970s TV series, Happy Days.

    I remember when I was 10 years old going to see the movie "Clarence the Cross-Eyed Lion" with a couple of friends. The TV show 'Daktari' was based on that movie.
